I think first you have to answer how it is possible for a living object to be sentient.

It has to be an agent, not just a language model. An agent with a goal, needing to learn about the environment and maximise its rewards, acting in real time. Such an AI would model the world and itself in order to learn how to act. It would form values about the situation and choices it has to make. It will have a personal history and will be social (deal with other agents).
